History

Founded in January 1975 and accredited by the American Kennel Club in June 1978, the Kalamazoo Dog Training Club (KDTC) has grown from fewer than 12 members to more than 70.

A not for profit organization, KDTC continues to meet its purposes by conducting dog training classes that include agility, dog tricks and conformation; educating and encouraging the public to practice responsible dog ownership; and promoting cooperation and good sportsmanship among member in the training and exhibiting of dogs.
